About This Home

Don't be fooled by the address! Set nicely back from the road, this well cared for home offers a comfortable layout and a surprisingly private setting with an expansive backyard oasis - perfect for outdoor play & entertaining. A charming 3-bed Bungalow near town center - just far enough from the hustle of Broadway, while still within easy reach of Tuscan Village, Canobie, and all of Salem's best amenities. The versatile interior layout is well suited to a wide range of lifestyles and work from home needs. The main-level bedroom is thoughtfully positioned just off the stairway, offering a comfortable balance of privacy and connection to the remaining bedrooms upstairs. Recent siding, windows, roof, front porch, & more; plus a newly updated bathroom all bring modern comfort to this classic bungalow, while still leaving room for further updates and equity gains. Don't miss your chance!
